Costumed dancers participate in the final leg of the Carrera Antorcha Guadalupana or Our Lady of Guadalupe Torch Run, in New York, Thursday, Dec. 12, 2013. The annual relay race that brings the torch from Mexico to New York is run to draw attention to immigrant families divided by the border. The Mexican community is asking that the Virgin's feast day, Dec. 12, be made a religious holiday for Mexicans in the city. The proposal will be introduced as a bill next year in the City Council, organizers of the event said. (AP Photo/Seth Wenig)Photo by Seth Wenig
